Enigma of Life is the first book in the Enigma Series by the incredibly talented Shandi Boyes. I have fallen in love with all of Ms. Boyes books, she quickly become one of my favourite authors- her stories are addictive. She really is a ‘must read author’- and if you haven’t read any of her work, then this is the best place to start as this is the book that started it all. So, if you are at all intrigued by the author/book/series, I highly suggest diving right in, you are bound to love it just as much as I do. But, be prepared to develop a serious addiction to Ms. Boyes stories. One will never be enough. There are four books in Isaac and Isabelle’s story, available individually or in a boxed set- then there are many more books that come after that will help take the edge off your addiction!
Isabelle is setting of on her first assignment for the FBI. She is nervous and has a fear of flying, she’s making her way through the airport when she literally runs into the most gorgeous man she’s ever seen. He ends up helping her overcome her fears, distracting her and making her feel at ease, she is drawn to him- and they have a connection that’s electric. He intrigues her like no one else ever has before. But when she arrives at her destination she is given a file that will help brief her on her first assignment, when she opens it, she’s confronted with the sexy face of the mysterious man who’d helped on the flight.
Isaac is a wealthy businessman who’s an extremely private person, he doesn’t do relationships, or ever allow anyone to get too close to him. When a stunningly beautiful woman literally lands at his feet, he is intrigued and can’t help but being drawn to her. These two probably shouldn’t have anything to do with the other, let alone fall in love. Especially with Isabelle’s job, the FBI investigation, her painful past, the legality of Isaac's business dealings being called into question… as well as some serious trust issues. With the secrets between them, there is no way they can make this work. Or can they?
As the story unfolds, Ms. Boyes takes us on a truly incredible journey with characters that will capture your heart and mind. I have spent quite a lot of time reflecting on how to do this book the justice it deserves- how do I write a review that will convey just how amazing this book is and give you an idea of the story, without giving away any spoilers. I could go into more detail about what the book is about, but I think that gives away too much and you are better off not knowing too many details and just immersing yourself in the story.
Kudos! ... and Thank you, Ms Boyes!
